Chicago Luck.

The luckiest man in Chicago is a youg man who lives at a fashiona- ble clearinghouse. He has nar- rowly escaped being killed by the cars several times, has had the fact demonstrated that he was not born to be drowned, and has safely got out of burning house, besides winning lottery prize, The other night he went home tired, and as he was undressing gold and silver coin rolled out of his trousers pocket on the floor. He had thrown the trous- CTS across the room and was too tired to go after them, so he scooped the money into one of his shoes. That night burglars went through the boarding-house, and in the morning the money in the boot was all the cash left in the house. Chicago Tribune.

The Killing of Jep Clayton.

News has been received in pri- vate letter Pecos City to citizen of Las Cruces, to the effect that Jep Clayton, was killed recently at Toyah. Full particulars of the trafedy were not received. One report said that it was not known who did the killing. Another ru- nor said that Clayton was killed by another well-known cattleman living at Toyah, and that the kill ing was justifable, as Clayton was drinking and threatened the other mans life. Clayton was considered a dangerous man when drinking, and killed man at Sweetwater, Texas, some two or three years ago. He has been a participant in num- erous other desperate affrays, and has had several "close calls" be- fore.-Rio Grande Republican.

Tie Frisco to Come tO Albuquerque.
The St. Louis Globe-Democrat O

The St. Louis Globe-Democrat o1
 a late date has the following in re-
 gard to the extension of the St.
 Louis < San Francisco road to Al
 buquerque:
 1.-The meeting of Frisco stock
 holders called to authorize the is-
 sue of $50,00O,OO0 in stock and bonds secured by a general mort gage, is the forerunner of com
 plete divorce of that line from the
 Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe and
 Atlantic & Pacific Railways, with which it has always been supposed very friendly relations had been sustained. The situation, as pie tured by the Frisco people, is not so free from misunderstanding as the outer world chooses to regard it. In fact, the -Seligmans have had their eyes opened to the real inten- tions and purposes of the big Bos ton ally, and, although late in the day to declare war, the Frisco man agement has decided to cut loose from the apron-strings and strive to make name of it's own in the history Of western railways. This decision was reached when 1t was discovered the Atchison had the St. Louis line hemmed in so closely that business could be diverted in any direction to markets in which the Frisco had Tho, interest. The Frisco now proposed to build from Sapulpa, in the Indian Territory to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where direct connection would be made with the Southern Pacific. Engi- neers have been in the field for some time, and profiles of the new route show a gentle grade, with no serious difficulties to surmount. The route selected is almost an air line,and when completed the Frisco line will have the shortest route to the Pacific coast. By avoiding the circuitous Atchison route the Frisco will be enabled to reduce the dis tance twenty-foar hours, and save travellers from the harassing expe- rience of nearly a week on the transcontinental journey. The eff feet of this independent action will be to stimulate the early construc- ton of the Atchison's St. Louis line that it may be in a position to bid for business on even terms with the system which it's managers have vainly endeavored to reduce to a subordinate place.

Indians En Mexico.

An Fl Paso diswatch of a recent date says: A letter was received from ex-Lieutenant Britton Davis manager of the Corralitos Mining Company, in the State of Chihua- hua, giving some startling informa- tion about the Indians. Davis writes as follows:
 "AIcGraw had a fight with In- dians at Santa Maria lake, at ten clock this morning October 3d.) He says, We exchanged about 70 shots with the red devils, and re- captured nearly all our horses and some belonging to other parties.
 eve saw seven Indians, although one of them seemed to be an Amer ican or Mexican. He was very brave and did all ot the fighting. The Indians have only six or seven horses left.
 "I have sent to Ascension, our horses being nearlyall broken down. We gave them a long chase, Iwait here for help. Then we will follow and confidently expect to overtake and capture the last one of them. The Mayor of Ascension has sent me twenty men
 NIT. Davis winds up his letter with the remark: ''I suppose the American and Mexican military will say there are no Indians out"

Capital Punishment.

IThe motive and end of capital punishment, and indeed of all oth- CT penalties imposed by the law, is popularity misunderstood. The laws attitude toward a condemned
 felon is not, as sometimes supposed. that of an avenger; it's purpose is not to exact an eye for an eye and tooth for Q tooth,aa ,aaand though the individuals whom that felon had injured .forgaye their. wrongs and pardoned the author of them, the course of the law oughtsssnot to be influenced in the smallest degree The laws function is purely and simply to protect society as whole, and in the eyes of the. law a crimi- nal Is to be considered not as hu- man beinf with possible claims to man sympathy, ,sbut as-the wilItul party to deed, the nature of which is opposed to social well-being. Seven men. are now lying in jail at Chicago under sentence of death. The crime for which they are con demned to die may have been com mitted in the fulfillment of what appeared to them a great and right eous pmpose, but as violation of the law it was monstrous in the ex- treme, and if social order is to be respected these men must be pun ished. AS misguided men the con demned anarchists are, perhaps, to be pitied as men they are, perhaps, to be forgiven; but the law regards them as social danger, not as men, and for the security of the public they must die.-Examiner,

An Editor Punished.

An editor died and slowly wend- ed his way down to where he sup posed a warm reception awaited
 him. The devil met him and said {: "For many years thou hast borne the blame tor many errors that the printers made in the paper. The paper has gone alas for $4, and the $4 alas has often failed to come in. The printers have be- deviled thee for wages, Saturday night when thou had not one cent to thy name. Men have taken the paper without paying for it and cursed thee for not getting up a better paper. Thou hast been called a dead beat by the passenger con ductor, when thou presented thy annual pass to his envious ssgaze. All these things thou hast borne in silence. Thou canst not come in here." And he fired him. AS he did so he murmured to himself: Heaven is his home, and besides, if we had let him come in here he would have been continually dun uing his delinquent subscribers and thus created discord in my king dom. ."-Exchange.

The Fall of a Large ErOlite.

An immense @rolite fell in the vicinity of Owensboro, Kentucky, a few nights since The meteor seemed to be of a conical shape, with the apex toward the earth, and looked to be fully 100 feet in length and 30 in breadth. It bore down ward in an oblique direction, with a velocity inconceivable and noise louder than the loudest storm. The surface of the earth where 1t struck was torn up over an area of 10 or 15 feet square. A sickening sui phurous smell pervaded the atmos- phere, and fragments of a glisten- ing stone, olackened as if by smoke, were scattered around. The light of the meteor was seen throughout the neighborhood.

Rich PlaCerS in Arizona.

The Tucson Citizen says great excitement prevails over rich placer discovered in the Blue Mountains, south of that place. One nugget is valued at $1,2OO. A Mexican came in last night with sack of nuggets ranging in value from $500 to $1,000. Many prospectors have fone to the scene of the discovery on foot, other parties are going in vehicles. General Escelante and a party of capitalists leave to-mor- TOW. Almost all the vehicles in town have been engaged,

Arrested After Seven Years.

A Waco, Texas, dispatch of the
 Fist says: Twelve or fifteen years since there was desperate gang of
 horse and cattle thieves located in
 the jungles at Tepuacana, about
 ten miles from Waco, under the lead of the celebrated desperado, Bill PoseY. The band consisted of Posey, Bud and Ben Fuller, the Sweats and others. Posey was since killed. Sweat served a five years sentence, and yesterday morning Deputy Marshal Waller arrested Ben Fuller near Caddo, in the In- dian Territory, and landed him in the Waco jail He had been fu- gitive from justice for seven years, and has only lived with his Win chester constantly in his hand. Waller only succeeded in arresting him by some neat strategy for which he is noted. Thus has fallen the last member of one of the most desperate bands of lawless free booters and rufians with which the frontier of this State has been in- fested. Ben was indicted for horse and cattle stealing in several cases.

A MedICO'S Experience.

The Druggist says: When Dr. Bowling, pioneer medical man in the South, began to practice, he settled in the wilds of Kentucky, where he sat in front of his cabin for six months without call. At last he heard the chatter of a horses hoofs, and lank, bare-footed Ken- tuckian appeared. "Are you doc- tor?' he asked. "Yes, and a good one," said Bowling. "What's the matter with that lar toot?" the man enquired, placing his heel on the fence. The Doctor examined 1t closely, and replied: ''That, sir, is erysipelas." 'Ery-hellP' p the man replied, "a bee stung me-" The Doctor moved to Nashville.
